Anthony Dirrell vs. Avni Yildirim - February 23, 2019

[diddy]

Man these guys do NOT like each other.

[armageto]

Cut looks worse than I thought in the post fight interview. I think it opened up more without anybody working on it. Dirrell said this will be his last year, interested in fighting Plant.

[diddy]

Benavidez vs Plant is a good fight after Benavidez beats JLeon.

Great point!! That cut reminded me of the one Vitali had when he was stopped by Lennox!! Very wise stoppage!!

It's a really interesting bout.

[jamamb]

benavidez despite not doing much was hyped as a total monster, lets see it and find out more about cocaine dave

[Ruthless-RKO]

I could see a draw or either man edging it close, so can't complain. The one card seemed a little too wide.

Yeh. ESPN has it 96-94 Dirrell.

B-Scene has it 95-95..

Had the 10th round not been scored by judges, Yildrim would have taken it

[goose 5]

I thought the Turk won 4 rounds, at best.

[Best Coast]

Someone gave Yilidrim 8 rounds of 10 rds?!

Not surprising. The judge who gave Yildirim 8 of 10 rounds is Juergen Langos from Germany, where Yildirim has had most of his fights. Many of Yildirim's fights were refereed or judged by Langos, who seems to have a pro-Yildirim bias.

[Betro09]

Decision was controversial. Yeah, Dirrel was ahead in scorecards, yet the cut was not caused by an accidental head clash.

And these are just empty words. But both of them Dirrel brothers aren’t the “men” for boxing which I think a sport as the real gentlemans and sportmanship. They made racist comments to Yıldırım and crew, such as “go back to your country” which I believe that can only made by some real hardcore racist men, but no one seems to care about it.

Avni Yıldırım was robbed by a pitiful decision in USA, yet he gave the Dirrel Boy a scar that’s gonna be with him until the end of his days. It is the cowardness, his terrible annoying attitude which is a disgrace for boxing and the “cut” right ahead of his eye. Which I refer is “the cut of Chicken Dirrel”.

The replay showed the cut was caused by an accidental collision of heads. The cut worsened as the fight wore on and the post-fight interview of Dirrell showed it to be a horrendously deep cut. The ref said he could even see the bone and it was one of the deepest cuts I've ever seen in a boxing match > right up there with Vitali's cut stoppage vs Lennox Lewis. Your boy was not robbed, he was legitimately behind on the scorecards. The only one who got it wrong is the clown who had Yildirim winning 8 of 10 rounds!!

In the prefight confrontations BOTH fighters talked trash so dont try to make it sound like your boy Yildirim is some kind of innocent "victim" of "racism". The race card is a copout when things dont go your way.

You claim boxing is a sport for "gentlemen" and "sportsmanship" but that is definitely not what was shown by your boy Yildirim during his post-fight infantile tantrum.

First of, Yıldırım is not my boy. Every time fighters talk trash yet in the end it is all about peace and love, right? See how was betweem them Eubank and Yıldırım when Eubank offically destroyed him, and their pre-fight confrences were much worse. The ref is a puppet, yet you are another puppet that don’t know much about it all. The same German judge gave scores for Yıldırım’s last match as a draw, just reminding you all. (And it was a draw in my opinion as well)

No matter what, it was ugly. He -Avni- thought he was robbed -big time so don’t be surprised he didn’t congratulate Dirrel at all. Dirrel Boys are serious disgrace to this sport. When Uz. knocked Andre’s ass in the 2nd, it was divine justice. And it will be another öne when Anthony goes down, but he is not a man who will go down in style, he should have been DQ’ed in Han fight anyway, never getting shot for the belt.

And if you have any skills for reading rather than talking n talking you could have seen I already said Dirrel Boy was ahead in the scorecards.

No amigo, I didnt miss Badou's horrific cut. Nor did I say Dirrell's cut was worse than Badou's. I just said Dirrell's cut was right up there with Vitali's vs Lennox and Badou's cut ranks right up there too.

I was not the least bit surprised that YIldirim didnt congratulate Dirrell after the fight. It's not really that unusual for a fighter who thinks he got robbed by a bad decision (or whatever) to not congratulate the winner. What IS unusual was the temper tantrum Yildirim pulled after the decision was announced. YOU are the one who brought up the words "gentleman" and "sportsmanship" but you obviously dont hold that standard if it's your fighter who goes ballistic when things dont go his way.

What is really ironic is that you claim "Yildirim is not my boy".

But your profile shows that although you joined Current Scene in November 2017, that in 15 months as a member of BoxRec Forums you made only TWO comments and they were BOTH about Avni Yildirim!!

So you are not really a boxing fan...just a fan boy of Avni Yildirim!!
